While Callie and Chase are walking towards the pizza restaurant, he was the first one to break the silence. "You must me wondering why I have that photo on my phone." he started talking. "Yeah." Callie said, as she want to know his story. "Well, I was dead worried about you and Nate last night. I was worried that the two of you might get locked up inside the Apollo Theater." Chase started. "How did you know we're inside?" she curiously asked him. "I really don't know how to explain it, but I had this inkling feeling that you and Nate are inside." answered Chase, while shrugging his shoulders. Callie explained that it was our mutual decision to stay inside the Apollo Theater to have private rehearsals, as she and Nate are feeling more pressured to perform well for the upcoming stage play... "So that's the reason why." Chase spoke again, as he understands everything now. "And I'm really sorry for making you and the rest of the boys worry too much." she sincerely apologized to hi
After a few moments. Callie didn't realize she fell asleep while the training is moving. She opened her eyes slowly, and afterwards, she glanced at her watch. She realized that I was asleep for an hour. "That was a good sleep." she said to myself, while stretching her arms. Callie decided to stand up and go to the comfort room to splash some water on her face, to wake herself up. As she was making her way towards the comfort room, two kids started running on the train aisle, and they suddenly bumped into her. And just like a domino effect, they all fell unto the ground... She wasn't hurt or anything, and she is more worried about the two kids. "Are you guys okay?" one familiar voice suddenly made her look up. Callie's eyes widened in shock when she saw who was standing in front of her. "E-Edward?!" "Come, let me help you and the kids." Edward offered his help. "Thanks." she said to him. Once Edward helped all of us stand up, he started talking to the kids. "Are you both
"Edward? What are you doing here?" she asked in disbelief. "I'm so sorry for intruding your house, Callie... But I've got no place to go." Edward apologized, while shivering because of the cold. "Callie, who's at the door---- oh, it's you! If I remember it right, you're name's Edward, right?' her cousin Jessica suddenly appeared. "Hello again, Jessica!" Edward greeted her in return. "Oh, my... Look at you! You're freezing because of the cold. Please come in first and drink something hot to warm yourself!" Jessica invited him in. "Jessica's right. You should warm yourself up before you get sick." Callie agreed as well. "Thank you very much for your hospitality, guys." Edward tries to smile at them, eventhough his whole face is white as a sheet... ================================= After half an hour. Edward is looking and feeling a lot better now, after drinking a warm tea, having a warm dinner and changing into much warmer clothes. "Thank you very much for welcoming me into
Months quickly passes by. "This is your last day for this semester, everyone. Enjoy your semestral break to the fullest, and make many wonderful memories! I know you're all getting impatient, so I'm going to formally end the last class for this semester. See you all again for the next semester!" their last teacher for the day, Miss Richards, finally bid everyone goodbye.As as soon as their last teacher finally walks out the door, each of the students went to their own group of friends, and they started making plans on where to go and what to do during their semestral vacation.Callie started having a chat with Rachel and Bianca when she suddenly saw Ethan walking towards our direction."Hello, girls." Ethan greeted them."Oh, hello there, Ethan." Bianca and Callie smilingly greeted him back."Are you about to go home, Rachel?" Ethan suddenly asks Rachel"Not yet. I'm going to stay here with the girls for a while to hangout and chat longer." Rachel answered Ethan's question. "That's
A few days after the festival. After lunch, all of the casts gathered up again to resume the rehearsals. They started with their singing lessons and started to have singing dance routines. "Callie!" All of the cast looked at Director Oliver's direction. "Yes, sir?" asked Callie, while looking nervous. "What the hell was that? Can't you sing properly? Why can't you still remember the lyrics?" the old director suddenly interrogated. Callie choked back her tears as she gathered all her courage to answer. "Director Oliver's having a fit again?" Nate complained, as he stares at the director. "Poor Callie. She looks really pressured." observed Chase. "But come to think of it...There is something wrong with her." Edward wondered aloud. "Is it because she's having a hard time coping up with the script?" Grant asked. Edward shook his head. "Maybe she can't concentrate on her lines because she has to dance at the same time?" guessed Randall. "That's not it. It's mor
After few days... They did the same routine of having rehearsals for the few weeks.The gala night is getting near, so they are all getting excited and edgy at the same time. One afternoon, all the cast members are in the middle of their afternoon practice when Director Oliver calls for their attention. They all rounded up at the middle of the stage. "Everyone, I would like to thank your for working so hard from the beginning. I can see that you're doing your best, but it's not enough." the director suddenly announced. All of the cast nervously looked at each other. "To tell you honestly, I am not satisfied with your performance. I think that you are still at an amateur level." the old director commented again. "I don't understand... What do you mean, sir?" Nate curiously asks him. "I have invited someone that I think will give more justice to the stage play. You can come out now..." the old director suddenly calls for someone. "Thank you for finally calling us, director!" Cal
Callie was invited by Dean to his apartment as they are now being paired to each other for their stage play. "Please come in and make yourself comfortable." Dean invited her in, as he steps inside the apartment. "T-Thank you." Callie said, in a timid manner. Once she steps inside, she notices that Dean's apartment is fully furnished, and it's obvious that he came from a well-off family. "Can I offer you anything? Coke, juice or water?" Dean suddenly asked her. "A glass of juice sounds good, thanks." Callie answered in return. Dean went to the kitchen to get some drinks. After a few minutes, he came back to the living room while carrying a tray with drinks. "Thank you very much." Callie thanks him, while getting a glass of orange juice. She started drinking it, as she was really thirsty. "Alright, so let's talk about your strength and weakness. Are you willing to listen to my advice?" Dean suddenly asks her. Callie nodded as an answer, as she also wants to know the things that
Dean gently puts a blanket on Jennifer who is sleeping soundly. He lets her sleep in his apartment because she doesn't want to wake her up as she looks so exhausted after what happened few hours ago... He decided to go to his own room to try to sleep. But he has been tossing and turning on his bed, and he can't just make himself fall asleep. His mind made a mental flashback to the happier times with Director Oliver, Nate, Chase, Grant, Edward, Randall and Jennifer. Their love for stage plays brought them together, but being in a stiff competition and aiming to be the better actor made them fall apart, and their friendship suddenly changed into being rivals... His train of thoughts suddenly stopped when he heard his mobile phone ringing. He quickly answers the call when he saw his sister's name on the caller screen. "Hello, Deana! How's California?" he greeted his sister. "Hello there yourself, dear brother. Everything's fine here. So, what have you been doing there?" Deana
